it does take more dedication to farm deaths, but it takes skill to farm kills w/o deaths, that's one of my favorite parts about AL, its not elixir centered like certain games.
i wont bash anyone for having bad kdrs but i respect people much more if they can do the same as others w/o dying as much
Derp
Name one reason that dieing helps the group, when you die, all you do is leave 4 people too do the work that's meant for 5... congratulations, you have made it harder on your group 1000 times, you sir, deserve an achievement for such a glorious accomplishment, sts can call it "short hander"
Yes people with low deaths are afraid.
Well lets see I stay alive till I die as a rogue, I help n00bs and alot! I lvl my guildies I give my ALL. So I pull agro and end up killing the foes or dieing. I'm not saying that I try to die or even want to but that a death is something not to be ashamed of if you are a mature dedicated player.
So I can now deduce that u don't care about your party in the same way I do. Ill die for them. (End of convo with u about this for me)
I am a mage and usually death in this scenario:
I walk to the monster, start spaming skills. Oh Fireball, frost, etc.
Monsters ain't moving, my teammates too!
And I died in a sudden.
LoL
There should be an Achievement in-game for 1000 deaths and that will alleviate everybody's angst!
Lol that would make zero death players with Colton angry
That's a good one bro. For those people who worry so much into dying. Dying is part of the game and in real life too
colton grants death reducrtion ?Lol that would make zero death players with Colton angry
The number of deaths doesnt always reflect player ability (64 k kills 600+ deaths) there are multiple factors that can contribute to the amount of deaths a player has, lag, running low on potions or cant heal fast enough, bad partys, running mainly elite maps, poor tanks, or people who bring all the mobs to you.
I help my friends, guild, and do alot of pub runs i do quite a bit if die it doesnt matter, im always taking agro and tank bosses. If i dont lag or dont get mobed im usually still alive, sometimes im the last one standing and ive had alot of people leave runs just because they died a few times, thats happened to me alot recently soloed mardom a few times.

to the OP; dude, I have like 650 deaths. So chill and be happy.
I didn't care too much about dying when I started AL and played fairly recklessly but now I try pretty hard to survive when things start going topsy turvy and approach scenarios a lot more cautiously. This also has saved me guzzling so many potions aswell
... although a slight drawback is probably the NERD RAGE when I get ganked by an enormous mob (suck at the game)
I don't see deaths as a bad thing, as a mage it happens to me a lot. Sometimes it's a bad tank, sometimes it's because I was a second slow on that fireball to keep the mobs stunned so I can put time shift back up... sometimes I'm too slow moving away when I see or hear the cue the boss is about to blast me with something that could probably one hit me... I do run elite a lot now (21, not much else to do).
Only times I get pissed is if I'm on a map where it's a long haul back to the boss (elite tower no big deal, he's right there), the times I get REALLY pissed is when I see my heal animation go off as I fall over (lots of cursing on that one) or that time the genius tank piled all the mobs on the spawn spot and died... that was nice, took 5 deaths before I could get the map up and poof out. I'm not a fan of those tanks that go and round up half the map, unless you're with a good group (that you run with regularly) that tends to just lead to death.
Gonna hit 50,000 kills with 0 death. I SO PRO.

No I'm talking about people who have got Colton for achievement points
HEY what is Shiloh and kettle arcane ability by the way
Shiloh arcane ability grants 40 STR and kettle's grants 12% movement speed
Iacito My guess: 2900
well,it is not a big problem, players are allowed to play the way they would like to.
As for me , for elite maps, I died lots ,either in random game or records run.
But I also have some sub tons with 0 death,just play for fun.
imo, those that have low deaths are those who you don't want to party with at all. They're afraid of losing their 'godly' K : D ratio and thus stay in the back and attack every so often or not at all so they don't draw aggro to themselves, so basically, they just leech exp and loot and boast about their K : D ratio like the little nibs they are.
My Sig is better than yours.
No, not really. I'm at >10k kills and <50 deaths.
In my case, burning LOT'S of pots is what's keeping me alive. I don't really care wasting my gold on pots, as long as I survive.
In my personal opinion you are not going to be able to test the limits of your damage output unless you are willing to die. I find that players who really have a good understanding of the gameplay also have a good number of deaths as they have done a lot of experimentation and have been willing to die doing so. Unfortunately, as with most things in life, you are just not going to get that good unless you practice. Sure, having a low death or no death toon requires skill, so I'm not knocking it, but I also find that most quality high K/D ratio or no death toons also have another toon with a fair number deaths. Just my opionion, but I am a little biased with my perhaps leaderboard worthy number of deaths
